Have you ever experienced having a fever? You usually touch your forehead or
neck to check if you have a fever or not. You use your sense of touch to tell whether
an object is hot or cold or one is hotter or colder than the other. When bathing a
baby, you dip your fingers in the water, and when you prepare baby's milk, you
sprinkle a few drops of milk on your wrist to check if the temperature is just right.
When you are about to fry some food, you sprinkle some water to see if the frying
pan is already hot. When you feel you are warm, you often say you have a high
temperature. When an object is cold, you often say it has a low temperature.
Temperature is commonly associated with coldness or hotness of a body. How
do we quantify this difference in the hotness or coldness of a body? You might have
experienced that your mother checked your temperature by putting a small glass
tube, called a thermometer, in your underarm.

You are using a thin layer of epoxy to bond a Silicon chip to a pure aluminum plate that acts as a heat sink (epoxy layer 0.0200mm). The Silicon chip (k = 149.0 W/(m-K) is 0.200 mm thick, and has dimensions of 25.0mm by 25.0mm. The pure aluminum plate is 0.850cm thick, and has the same dimensions as the Silicon chip. The hot side of the silicon chip is measured to be 62.0°C; the cold side of the pure aluminum plate is measured to be 31.0°C. Assuming steady-state conduction (with the thin layer of epoxy acting as contact resistance, see Table 3.2.) determine the heat transfer rate through the chip. Do not add in an addition resistance due to the thickness of the epoxy layer, this has been incorporated into the contact resistance.
The outer surface of a spacecraft in space has an emissivity of 0.8 and a solar absorptivity of 0.3. If
solar radiation is incident on the spacecraft at a rate of 950 W/m?, determine the surface temperature of the
spacecraft, when the radiation emitted equals the solar energy absorbed.
